Formation of the Interstellar Sugar Precursor, (Z)-1,2-Ethenediol, through Radical Reactions on Dust Grains
In recent years, the continued detection of complex organic molecules of prebiotic interest has refueled the interest in a panspermic origin of life. The prebiotic molecule glyceraldehyde is proposed to be formed from (Z)-1,2-ethenediol, a molecule recently detected toward the G+0.693-0.027 molecula...
